Dyed artificial-fiber warp knit fabrics serve the apparel lining, intimate apparel, and activewear sectors, where the combination of rayon or modal's drape with warp knit's dimensional stability is commercially valued. Four US tariff lines capture distinct construction variants: open-work fabrics (6005420010), stitch-bonded goods (6005420020), a general line (6005420000), and a residual 'other' line (6005420080). China is the leading supplier, with Taiwan and South Korea also significant sources reflecting East Asia's concentration of warp knitting capacity. Section 301 tariff exposure on Chinese-origin goods is a recurring cost consideration for buyers sourcing from the dominant supplier.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Open-work fabrics (6005420010) are distinguished by a mesh or lace-like structure with deliberate openings formed during knitting, as opposed to solid or dense constructions. This structural difference affects end-use (e.g., lingerie, decorative textiles) and can influence applicable textile visa or quota category determinations in certain trade programs.
Yes — imports from China in this heading are subject to Section 301 tariffs. Importers should confirm the applicable tariff list and any granted exclusions with a licensed customs broker, as the effective duty burden above the base MFN rate can be substantial and exclusion status changes periodically.
